  1. My federal income taxes aren't that bad, it's the massive state, local, and city taxes I pay that dwarf what the US fedgov takes. I have zero kids, why does NINETY PERCENT of my massive property taxes go to my school district, and EVERYTHING else, roads, police, fire, everything lives on the left over 10%? Why does my neighbor with FIVE kids pay the SAME school tax rate I do, while consuming 500% more resources?

  2. Why won't you ever own? Your parents have a house you can/should inherit. You were born on 3rd base and you're complaining it wasn't a homerun

  3. You also get siloed even if you do learn well. I have a degree in math. My sister has a degree in actuary and finance. I'm 41 and JUST learned about how dividends work, she's like Oh yeah, I was trading dividend stocks in my 20s, it's how I got wealthy, you didn't know about dividends with a math degree?! she exclaimed. No, I was too busy learning fucking calculus and dif-eq, I could have been doing goddamn simple multiplication and been making bank?! Now I'm a stock investor lol, trying to get HER to believe bitcoin is 'real'. My other sister is a doctor and has no clue what either of us are talking about.

  4. Here's the other side of that, my local town welcomed Walmart in with open arms because ALLLLL that tax revenue....last year, Walmart got a tax bill of $4 million dollars from the county, their attorneys said "NAW, our bill is more like $1 million, and we're willing to spend 10 million in legal fees and tie you up for years to get a penny out of it" So the county relented and took whatever Walmart would pay them. Straight up strongarm lawfared a whole county into lowering their taxes to a fraction, and they're doing that all over. It's like a mob boss, do you want a % of what we offer, or 100% of zero?

  5. ALSO, learned biology and got in on the quadrillion-dollar global biotech revolution. I know zoomers under 30 making mid-six figures in their first job with that biochemistry bachelors. And all that money is coming down to them from old boomers who need the medical advancements.

  7. Besides, we MILLENNIALS were the last generation, because we were the first ABORTION generation. 30 MILLION of my generation were killed before birth. There should be 100 million of us, not 70 million. THAT is why all the economic pyramid schemes are failing, we fetus yeetus-ed the bottom level of the pyramid!
